The National Association of School Psychologists produced a research summary on trauma-sensitive schools. ​

The document describes several situations that produce trauma, including family violence, poverty, homelessness, bullying, and natural disasters. The authors summarize research output in four areas: assessment, intervention, school-based mental health supports, and school policies.

The National Association of School Psychologists has published research summaries on several topics, ​including student discipline, school safety, and mental health programming.

A recent analysis of mental health research shows the strong correlation between social-emotional competence and student achievement. 

An important takeaway from the document is how interdependent three factors are to student achievement: students' mental health, students' self-efficacy, and school-based interventions that boost both.

Trauma and adverse childhood experiences, if unaddressed, could negatively affect student attendance, curricular achievement, and postsecondary outcomes. 

The National Child Traumatic Stress Network released a framework to address the effect of trauma on students, families, educators and the broader community. 

The framework describes a three-tier support system that school personnel could implement for students experiencing trauma. 

The document also identifies ten focus areas, including family engagement, community partnerships, educator professional development, and social-emotional learning approaches delivered alongside instruction.

​Here is a powerful video on Ted Talks by Linda Cliatt-Wayman, a principal in North Philadelphia.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xe2nlti47kA

Linda Cliatt-Wayman attended a low-performing school in the same Philadelphia neighborhood where she was asked to lead another as a principal. She recalled how incredibly dark the school was inside: “I remember saying to myself, ‘How can I educate kids that I cannot see? Where are the lights? No wonder so many fights. I can’t see anything.’ Instantly I thought about segregation and I thought about how it was supposed to have ended in 1958—I felt trapped, that we were stuck there. And then what in the world was I going to do to make sure that this also was a school for students who had nowhere else to go. And I felt how it was degrading that anybody’s child would have to go to a school like this.”

Here is an interesting perspective of the correlation of harsh school discipline to involvement in the judicial system. There are so many links to school discipline and drop out rates, low academic performance, and involvement in criminal activities. Although this is not current information, there is still validity to what continues to happen in our schools.

Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation Prevention Guide & SB 401

Georgia’s Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation Prevention Technical Assistance Resource Guide (TARG) is intended to outline how communities and schools can utilize existing sexual abuse prevention strategies and programs to improve the health and well-being of their youth population.

The TARG is a comprehensive guide that provides best practices on:

  • principles of prevention,
  • identifying resources for the classroom,
  • developing a prevention plan,
  • age appropriate teaching suggestions,
  • analysis of specific programs, and
  • guidelines for implementation and evaluation.

Download the full TARG by filling in your contact information below.

The TARG is a recommended guide for educators looking to comply with SB 401. SB 401, a 2018 revision to the Quality Basic Education Act, GA Code Section 20-2-143, requires:

  • Annual age-appropriate sexual abuse and assault awareness and prevention education for students K-9
  • To provide professional learning that may include participating in or presenting at in-service training on sexual abuse and assault awareness and prevention (GA Code 20-2-200)
  • In-service training programs on sexual abuse and assault awareness and prevention for personnel that will be providing instruction in annual age-appropriate sexual abuse and assault awareness and prevention education K-9 (GA Code Section 20-2-201)

SafeCare Founder & Former PCA Georgia Board Chair Retires

Dr. John R. Lutzker officially retired from Georgia State University at the end of October. As Director and founder of the Mark Chaffin Center for Healthy Development, he was responsible for bringing Prevent Child Abuse (PCA) Georgia to the university center in 2011. Many of you may also be familiar with the evidence-based home visiting program he created, SafeCare. His large body of work, primarily focused on the prevention of child maltreatment, has impacted the lives of countless families during his tenure. In 2017 alone, SafeCare served over 6,000 families in the U.S. and internationally. 

Upon retirement, GSU's President appointed him the honor of Professor Emeritus, in recognition of his significant contributions to the university and vulnerable populations everywhere. While he is known widely for his expertise on parenting, he is known best within our office for his mentorship, comradery, and passion. 

 


Parents Want to Know

Parents with more knowledge about parenting and child development are more likely to engage in positive parenting practices, but how do parents get this information? 
Parents are not always included in the planning of programs designed for them. Child Trends recently conducted a parent focus group with racially, ethnically, and economically diverse groups of first-time parents of infants and toddlers.  Parents raised the following five key points: 

  • They are eager for information on child development, but don't know how to obtain it.
  • They most commonly seek information during developmental transitions.
  • Parents of different backgrounds and identities had more commonalities than differences when it came to their parenting knowledge and information-seeking preferences and behavior.
  • The internet was a primary source of information.
  • Parents wanted clear, concise recommendations for parenting practices with examples of how to use them.

Programs should actively seek input from parents whenever possible to inform their practices and services deliveries.

Supporting Brain Development and Preventing Trauma: Two New Free Trainings
 

Build My Brain is a cross-disciplinary online course focused on the science and importance of early childhood development. The  course was inspired by a collaboration between GEEARS,  child-serving agencies, and Harvard University's Center on the Developing Child. Identifying how the science of early childhood development can be applied to policies and services for children birth to five can advance the Governor's goal of having every Georgia child reading on grade level by the end of third grade.

Find out how a child's brain architecture is constructed and how families, caregivers, and all adults can be great brain builders through the responsive interactions and nurturing relationships they have with children.

Access the training here: Georgia Build My Brain .


Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), such as child maltreatment, parental substance abuse, mental illness, and socioeconomic hardship, affect children and families across all communities. ACEs can affect a child's health and well-being, resulting in a lifetime of poorer health outcomes. Since ACEs impact so many across the nation, society as a whole must understand how we can all help prevent ACEs. 

A recently released CDC training helps us recognize, understand, and prevent ACEs.  Learn about risks and protective factors, outcomes associated with ACEs, and strategies you can use to reduce or eliminate the impact of ACEs. 

This trainings is free and recommended for any audience. 
Start Training Now 
Approved for 1.5 hours of BFTS credit.

 Interested in ACEs? Sign-up for the Georgia ACEs Connection, a publicly open action-based online group for individuals, sectors, and communities that are utilizing the ACEs science to implement trauma-informed and resilience-building practices and policies.

 


GA Family Support Network 

Georgia has joined the National Family Support Network and has already begun training organizations in the national standards. The development of shared standards across the state is an important strategic step towards defining and promoting quality practices for families. What makes these Standards unique is that they are the first to integrate and operationalize both the principles of family support practice and the research-based evidence-informed Strengthening Families Protective Factors framework. 

PCA Georgia is excited to be a Standards Trainer and have family support centers represented as local councils. 

For more information about becoming part of the network contact Deborah Chosewood at deborah.chosewood@dhs.ga.gov


DFCS Director's Open Letter to the Child Welfare Community 

On October 16, Georgia DFCS issued an Open Letter to the Child Welfare Community to begin the process of open communication and engagement with the entire child welfare system around the Family First Prevention Services Act. Partners in the advocacy, provider, and legal and judicial communities are invited to share this letter broadly within professional and community networks.

 

 


Youth Thrive™ Survey Launch

All youth and young adults deserve to be supported in ways that support their healthy development. One of the best ways to support them is to ask them directly how they are doing. The Youth Thrive Survey  is the first instrument that is based on positive constructs.  This web-based survey measures the presence, strength, and growth of Youth Thrive Protective and Promotive Factors as proxy indicators of well-being.  Information collected is intended to help organizations reach youth in new and meaningful ways through real-time data directly from the youth that organizations are serving. 

For more insight on how this survey can benefit your organization, please register for the informational webinar that will be held November 14, 2018

26 New Mandated Reporter Trainers

 

Although Georgia requires all child serving professionals and volunteers to report suspected child maltreatment, there is no law describing how mandated reporters are to receive information on recognizing or reporting abuse. Prevent Child Abuse Georgia has trained professionals throughout the state to deliver Mandated Reporter Training to communities, professionals, or groups who wish to have in-person training.

Congratulations to the 26 newly trained professionals (pictured above), who attended PCA Georgia's Mandated Reporter TOT late September. They are now able to provide mandated reporter training in their community that includes:

  • Understanding laws around mandated reporting;
  • Defining four types of abuse and related indicators;
  • Describing the process for handling a disclosure of abuse; and
  • Following the basic procedure for reporting suspected child abuse.

Request a FREE MANDATED REPORTER TRAINING by filling out PCA Georgia's online form


Georgia's Training in Adoption Competency Program 


The GSU Professional Excellence Program is recruiting a new cohort for their Training in Adoption Competency (TAC) Program. The TAC Program, developed by the Center for Adoption Support and Education (C.A.S.E.), is an evidence-informed training program that provides mental health professionals with the knowledge, skills, and values needed to provide adoption-competent mental health services to their clients. In addition to licensed mental health professionals, others working in the field of adoption or providing services to members of the adoption triad (birth parents, adopted children, adopted parents) would also benefit from this program. 
 

 
The Fall 2018 Cohort Class begins in November.
 Classes will be held the 2nd Saturday of each month in Macon.
Please Apply by October 12th

State of Hope Communities 

State of Hope is a Georgia Division of Family and Children Services initiative supporting grass-roots, innovative efforts that focus on one or more of the four opportunities for hope: Education, being/becoming Trauma-Informed, Quality Caregiving and Economic Self-Sufficiency. These priorities will have the greatest impact on keeping children safe, strengthening families and empowering communities. The goal is to create Communities of Hope in each of Georgia's 14 regions. 

After a competitive application process, 57 organizations were selected to house local State of Hope collaborative efforts and participate in a larger learning community- the Hope Ecosystem.

Podcast Series Focuses on Georgia's Children 

 

Voices for Georgia's Children recently launched their inaugural podcast series, Challenges for Children. In April 2018, Voices set out to understand why so many of Georgia's children are being left behind. Team members traveled to Whitfield, Dougherty, Effingham, and Lamar counties to speak with community residents about the many struggles that children living outside Atlanta Metro face in accessing quality healthcare.  In the podcast, community members discuss a wide array of barriers including, transportation issues and  lack of mental health services, as well as share their personal stories.

Family First Act

The Family First Prevention and Services Act (Family First), enacted earlier this year, amends Title IV parts B and E of the Social Security Act to significantly lower foster care placements by allowing Title-IV E funding for primary prevention services. In order to utilize these services your state must opt in. Here are several ways Prevent Child Abuse America has recommended to educate state and local agencies on the benefits of Family First and the positive impact it can have in the lives of children and families.  

  • Educating Decision Makers
  • Creating a Positive Buzz about Family First
  • Forming Coalitions or Work-groups
  • Making Requests
  • Writing to the Acting Commissioner of the Administration of Children, Youth, and Families

​School Counselors are often afraid to work with children who self-mutilate. Gaining a better understanding of self-mutilation may assist counselors and school administrators in developing more effective and efficient ways to address the problem. Here is little bit of information that may be helpful in addressing the counselor's role in helping children who self-harm.
